Wolfgang’s in Somerville was the perfect choice for our company Christmas dinner. The service was truly spectacular—attentive, professional, and seamless from start to finish. The food was out of this world, with every dish beautifully prepared and full of flavor. The entire evening felt elevated and special, making it an unforgettable experience for our team. Highly recommend for both celebrations and exceptional dining.

My husband and I went for our anniversary. Everyone from the valet parker to the hostess to the waiter were so nice and professional. We had oysters and the bacon for appetizers, and then a tomahawk ribeye and German potatoes for dinner, followed by apple strudel and creme brulee for dessert. Everything was delicious, even the drinks – blueberry martini for me, southern comfort sour for my husband. Will definitely go again.

One of the best steaks I’ve ever had out, we got three for the table I didn’t have the ribeyes but my porterhouse was phenomenal and if you blindfolded me and told me i was eating the filet side when I was actually eating the strip side, I wouldn’t have known. it was that tender. cooked perfectly too – black and blue and sizzling in butter on the plate. apps and sides were decent but nothing can approach the wow factor of that porterhouse! A bit on the expensive side – $1111 for 4 hungry and thirsty guys.

Restaurant Review: Wolfgang’s Steakhouse — A Disappointing Experience in Hospitality

Walking into Wolfgang’s Steakhouse should evoke the promise of a classic dining experience — polished service, refined dishes, and an inviting atmosphere. Unfortunately, my recent visit fell far short of that expectation.

Upon arrival, I was met not with a warm greeting but with a dismissive attitude from the hostess. When I informed her that I’d be dining alone with my service dog, she curtly suggested seating us outside on the sidewalk. I explained that my dog was a trained service animal and that I preferred to dine indoors. She then demanded to see documentation — which, while not legally required, I had with me and presented. Only then did she reluctantly seat me, tucked away in a corner by the door — a spot that felt more like an afterthought than a welcome.

My waiter never introduced himself. I repeated my order twice, requesting that my soup be served before my salad. He did kindly offer water for my dog, but when some spilled, I offered to clean it up; he declined, saying he would take care of it. He never did. My service dog was left lying in a small puddle for the entirety of our meal.
When my food finally arrived, both the soup and salad were brought out simultaneously, despite my clear request. The restaurant was nearly empty — only four other diners in this dining area — yet no one checked on my table once. The hostess and multiple waiters attentively hovered around the other guests, refilling glasses and engaging in conversation, while my table remained entirely ignored.

The French onion soup was the one redeeming element — rich, flavorful, and properly balanced. Sadly, the lobster salad was the opposite: a mound of unseasoned meat atop a tasteless bed of greens, accompanied by an egg and tomato, but no dressing. The presentation mirrored the service — careless and unrefined.

No one refilled my water. No one asked if I wanted a drink or if my meal was satisfactory. When it came time for the check, I had to flag down another waiter entirely.

I left a minimal tip — a rare occurrence for me, as I typically reward good service generously — but this time, it felt necessary to reflect the experience. On my way out, I expressed my disappointment to the waiter who processed my bill, explaining that the food and service at Wolfgang’s have declined and that I would not be returning unless the staff learned to treat all guests — including those with disabilities — with kindness, professionalism, and respect.

Fine dining is not simply about the food; it’s about dignity, care, and the hospitality that turns a meal into an experience. On all these fronts, Wolfgang’s failed.

The staff was truly exquisite and amazing, and both the food and drinks were delicious. I would recommend utilizing the valet parking for added convenience.

I’ve been a regular customer at Wolfgang’s Steakhouse locations for years—every time I visit New Jersey or other states, this has been one of my go-to high-end steakhouses. Unfortunately, my most recent visit was an absolute disaster and the worst dining experience I’ve ever had at any Wolfgang’s.
The food was completely unacceptable for a restaurant of this price point and reputation:
• The steak arrived burnt on the outside and had literally zero seasoning—no salt, no pepper, nothing. It was flavorless and inedible.
• Sides and everything else on the plate were equally disappointing.
Service was even worse. Our server was openly rude, dismissive, and gave off strong vibes of racial profiling. He barely acknowledged us, provided attitude throughout the entire meal, and treated other tables noticeably better. It was uncomfortable and unacceptable in any restaurant, let alone one that positions itself as fine dining.
For a $150– 200+ per person check (before tip), this level of quality and treatment is embarrassing. I’ve had far better steaks and service at half the price elsewhere.
After years of loyalty, this single visit has completely lost me as a customer. If you’re looking for a proper high-end steakhouse experience where you’re treated with basic respect, go literally anywhere else—Ruth’s Chris, Morton’s, STK, or even a good local steakhouse will be a much better use of your money.
Extremely disappointed and will not return.

For the price, I find the experience here to be a bit lacking. The steaks are just okay- I’ve tried a few of them, and it pains me to have to say they really aren’t that flavorful or remarkable- even quite fatty and gristly. Beware, they tend to undercook- I ordinarily prefer medium rare, but have to order medium here to achieve the same effect. That said, the appetizers (oysters, caprese, soups, etc.) have been tasty. The wait staff are friendly, but not outgoing. More concerning is their lack of attentiveness: on each of my visits here, I’ve gone 30 minutes or more without a drink refill, which is just unacceptable. I don’t even drink alcohol. The atmosphere is very nice (though my most recent table in the streetside glassed-in patio was extremely wobbly…) Overall, I wouldn’t go out of my way to recommend Wolfgangs, but I don’t object to being brought here. Thankfully there is room for improvement in both recipe and service.

I’m gonna start this off by saying that I’ve been here before. Usually the service is much much better. I came here one valentine’s day with my girlfriend. We had a reservation for 9:30 and when we got there we were told it would be an hour wait which I thought to be a little bit silly but you can’t control how fast people eat. When we get to our table it took about 15 minutes to get our drink order, after we got our drinks we ordered our food. I ordered the lamb chops medium, my girlfriend ordered the filet medium, and we also ordered mashed potatoes. By the time we got our food it was well past 11 and a lot of the restaurant had cleared out. My lamb was overcooked to well done and unsalted. My girlfriend’s steak was undercooked to rare. The potatoes were pretty good. We saw people who came in after us get their food first which I think makes no sense. I chose not to make a deal out of it as it was Valentine’s day and I know the kitchen must’ve been busy but I can’t help but to feel as it I was taken advantage of a little bit because my girlfriend and I were one of the younger couples there and younger couples aren’t going to complain about much. (I know it’s unlikely but I keep coming up with that conclusion) I’m not mad at anybody or anything like that but I’m just disappointed at the service.

This was my first time at the Somerville Wolfgang’s but heard great things and have been to the city locations. It’s a nice atmosphere, wasn’t overly crowded on a Friday night and we had no wait getting to our reserved table. The menu was a classic steakhouse menu and they had one special (Surf & Turf) the night we came. The seafood tower was AMAZING — the crab cocktail was delicious as was the jumbo shrimp and lobster. However; the tuna tartare had way too much sinew (the white connective tissue that is way too chewy)….it should have been filleted properly to remove all of that, so we had to send it back. The steaks were wonderful and tender and the two sides we tried were the mushroom & onions and the Brussels sprouts! Both were very tasty and complimentary to our steaks and seafood. We finished the night with trying two desserts — the chocolate mousse which had a cookie crust that was amazing!! The other (which you can pass on) was a tiramisu – I love tiramisu and am a true Italian but this one had some kind of Bailey’s or ingredient that had a non traditional taste and we only could have a bite or two. But overall had a great dinner – it was pretty pricey but definitely a good spot to consider for a special occasion!

Wolfgang’s in Somerville is hands down one of the best dining experiences in the area. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere is warm, welcoming, and professionally run.

The service is excellent—attentive, friendly, and well-timed without ever feeling intrusive. A lot of that credit goes to Millo, the General Manager, who clearly takes great pride in the restaurant. Millo is visible, engaged, and genuinely cares about both the guests and the staff. It’s rare to see a manager so involved and personable, and it truly elevates the entire experience.

The food is outstanding and consistently high quality. Every dish we ordered was flavorful, perfectly cooked, and well presented. You can tell the kitchen uses quality ingredients and pays close attention to detail. Everything came out exactly as it should, and the portions were generous without sacrificing quality.

The overall experience at Wolfgang’s is what sets it apart—great food, great service, and strong leadership. It’s a place that feels well managed, comfortable, and reliable whether you’re there for a special occasion or just a great meal.

Highly recommend Wolfgang’s to anyone looking for top-tier food and service in Somerville. We’ll definitely be returning.
